Frequently asked questions
Can I fetch pre-rendered HTML for my components instead of raw JSON?
Yes! Use the get_html tool. It returns pre-rendered HTML for a specific model and URL, which is perfect for quick inspections or server-side integrations.
Do I need a Private API Key to use this server?
A Public Key is required for all read operations (get_content, query_graphql). However, a Private Key is mandatory for write operations like create_content, update_content, or admin_graphql.
Can I perform administrative tasks like managing Spaces or Models?
Yes, the admin_graphql tool allows you to execute administrative queries and mutations against the Builder Admin API, provided you have supplied a Private API Key.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
